The NDSU-UND Rivalry

The UND/NDSU men’s football rivalry raged between 1981 and 2003, and the women’s basketball rivalry played out during the 1990s when NDSU and UND combined to win eight out of nine national titles.

Carl Sandburg was a three-time Pulitzer Prizewinner, biographer, children’s storyteller, novelist, and captivating performer. Yet, after his death in 1967, his literary legacy faded and his poems, once taught in schools across America, were dismissed under the weight of massive critical attack. American Masters The Day Carl Sandburg Died provides a dynamic examination into his life.

Royal Memories: Prince Charles’ Tribute to the Queen is a wonderful collection of unseen photographs and films from Her Majesty’s private collection—many of them shot by the queen herself—which capture royal family life in the 1940s and 1950s.

Highlights include Her Majesty juggling the dual role of mother and queen, and a sequence of the young Prince Charles and Princess Anne playing at the beach in Norfolk.

The Met fulfills Wagner’s dream of a perfect Ring Prairie Public presents a truly epic 17 hours of television with Robert Lepage’s acclaimed new production of Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen. “The New York Times” hailed it as “the most theatrically effective staging of the four works in this epic series,” and the Associated Press called it “visually stunning and dramatically engrossing.”

The four-part opera from Great Performances at the Met airs September 1114 beginning at 8:00 p.m. (CT) each evening.

But there’s more. The television event actually begins on September 10 at 8:00 p.m. (CT) with

filmmaker Susan Froemke’s documentary Wagner’s Dream, which chronicles the backstory of the ambitious new staging.

The German composer Richard Wagner’s (1813-83) opera, often referred to as the Ring Cycle, comprises the four dramas Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, Siegfried and Götterdämmerung. The drama begins as the gods of Valhalla clash with underworld dwarves and brawny giants, with disastrous consequences. The evil Alberich steals gold to forge a ring of unimaginable power, and the chain of events that follows is legendary!

Many Prairie Public local television productions are funded in part by the following: Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund with money from the voters on November 4, 2008, North Dakota Council on the Arts, North Dakota Humanities Council, and by the members of Prairie Public. Thank you!
